At the local home school group this week Littletree made a new friend:

All the kids were quite fascinated with him for a while, which led to a long discussion about what kinds of caterpillars are okay to touch and which ones might make you itchy, as well as butterflies, chrysalis, and other assorted insect related stuff that naturally led to fairies. (Doesn't every conversation?)

(There's not really any purpose behind that photo I just wanted to include it because it's so freakin cute! Littletree has been really getting in to wearing pigtails lately - her hair has grown back so fast)

On the way home we were blessed to walk through a flock of lorikeets settling down to roost.

They are such beautiful birds

When we got home there was a surprise package waiting in the mail:

A new penfriend of Littletree's sent her this amazing hand-made skirt.

She's been wearing it pretty much constantly since she got it, always twirling, twirling...

About Me

I'm a green majik faerie.
I'm a survivor.
Travelling around the world with my 12 year old daughter Littletree.
Unschooling, Attachment Parenting and Gentle Discipline, co-sleeping, baby wearing and all that (though of course we're moving into respectful teenagerhood).
I'm an empowered, queer, poly mama, healing myself and loving life.
I'm a doula - a traditional birth attendant, helping women to give birth, naturally, where they want and how they want.
I'm a rainbow warrior, doing the world gatherings and trying (and failing) to stay out of the kitchen.
